Chapter 1792

Holding a hairdryer in her hand, looking at the man sitting there, Baili Xia felt a slight sense of doubt in her heart.

Why did she go to the bathroom to get the hairdryer so naturally, without even thinking about it?

Why does she always feel a familiar and heart-wrenching sensation when she sees this scene before her…

She shook her head, trying to shake off those messy thoughts.

Baili Xia walked behind Mu Xiaojiu with the hairdryer, plugged it in, and started drying his hair.

Mu Xiaojiu surprisingly cooperated by placing the document on the coffee table, sitting upright to allow Baili Xia to tend to his hair.

But what he didn’t consider was that by sitting upright, his hair was too high, making it inconvenient for Baili Xia.

At 1.9 meters tall, even sitting down, he appeared tall compared to her, barely over 1.6 meters, a shortie.

Baili Xia was also helpless, as among girls, she wasn’t considered too short.

Why does she feel like she’s entered a forest after joining the Mu family?

Uncle, Brother, Big Brother, even Ye Hua, Ye Ying, and Wu Ming…

right, it’s been a while since she saw Wu Ming.

This girl tends to zone out easily, and Mu Xiaojiu was already used to it.

Seeing her instinctively press down on his shoulders, he obediently hunched his body.

Baili Xia smiled faintly, surprised at how cooperative Uncle was.

It seems that his bad habit is actually easy to change; he just needs a lady of the house to take care of him.

If she could find a suitable lady for Uncle, he might even change his aloof demeanor.

But with Uncle being so exceptional, what kind of woman would be suitable for him?

Baili Xia’s thoughts had long drifted elsewhere, picturing every woman she knew beside Mu Xiaojiu, but it always felt out of place.

“Girl… it’s hot.” A hoarse voice pulled Baili Xia back from her thoughts.

“Ah!” She exclaimed lightly, quickly pulling the hairdryer away from Mu Xiaojiu’s head.

She had been so lost in thought that she didn’t notice the hairdryer was so close to Uncle, almost touching his skin.

She didn’t even know how long she’d been blowing on the same spot; Uncle must have been in a lot of pain.

What was annoying was that he hadn’t moved away, just softly said…

hot.

Oh heavens, what had she done to Uncle!

“Uncle, I’m sorry, I’m sorry!” Baili Xia kept apologizing, her face flushed red with guilt and embarrassment.

Mu Xiaojiu’s eyes flickered slightly, surprised that such a simple sentence made the girl feel so guilty.

He felt a bit annoyed with himself; knowing this would happen, he probably shouldn’t have said anything earlier.

What’s a little pain, anyway?

“I’m fine.” He said, “What were you thinking about just now?

So lost in thought.”

“Nothing, nothing.” Baili Xia’s eyes flashed with a hint of panic; she really didn’t know how to bring up what she was thinking about to Uncle.

Mu Xiaojiu glanced at her lightly, not pressing further.

“Uncle, there’s something I want to ask you.” Baili Xia finally mustered the courage to speak.

Mu Xiaojiu didn’t speak, just looked at her quietly.

Baili Xia took a deep breath and asked her question.

“Uncle, you’re so excellent, why haven’t you found us an aunt yet?”

As soon as the words fell, she immediately felt Mu Xiaojiu’s aura change in an instant, the air seemed to freeze.

Baili Xia was stunned again; was Uncle very resistant to tonight’s topic?

Why are his emotions always so unpredictable?
